- Run and execute the apt-get update command to update the package lists.
- Install the QEMU package by running the apt-get install qemu command.
- Run QEMU using the qemu-system-x86_64 -hda debian.img -m 1024 -boot d command (where debian.img is a Debian disk image and 1024 is the amount of RAM allocated to the emulator).
